Somebody failed high school biology.

The scientists who work he based his premise on are saying their research does not support this conclusions. The scientists are showing you with their research. You would know that if you read the article.

They have not shown a causal relationship.

What's more confusing is they state "..results highlight the potential role of the learning environment in contributing to differences in a child’s cognitive abilities at age twelve." This indicates that if there is a genetic component, it is largely irrelevant as the learning environment has the greater impact.

Answer in search of a problem.

You mean script kiddies that write apps for iPhones and don't know how to program....no great loss.

Spoken by someone with no knowledge of how stuff is built in China.

Somebody didn't read the article:

"However, there are doubts around the world about the Nicaragua Canal project, mainly focusing on its engineering difficulty and funding during the construction phase and the economic viability after completion."

Which would mean knowing C would not be required.

Another rubbish theory consigned to the dust bin....

Bullshit. String theory is dead. The latest research has shown that known of the boundary conditions for string theory exist.

We don't have the necessary cognitive tools? Really genius.....

Science is about observation. Anything else is speculation. Somebody failed high school.

Yes it is because it was nonsense to begin with - too complicated with zero predictive ability. It was a dead end as all the research as shown.

You mean a hypothesis until tested. A theory is a proven hypotheses - something laymen get wrong all the time. FYI string "theory" is dead. It was never alive to begin with only in the minds of people grasping at straws. A spate of recent research has consigned string "theory" to the dust bin.

See now I'm torn: Star Blazers or Robotech.......

Thank You! China actually has a space program. Japan has model planes. Sad.

Wait...starts? Where have you been.....
